I'm always so humbled to get this question. I love that I got so many of you interested in bone collecting, processing and art but everything done at BoneLust is a one woman show and will likely always stay that way. Not that I don't wish I had little packing gnomes helping me get orders out, but because I'm a very private person, I don't have an actual art studio or storefront.

Everything you see here, happens on my property and in my home. I don't honestly have the time to take on an apprentice right now either. I am already teaching my skills daily at my blog & countless social networking locations. If I ever have a workspace NOT at my home this may all change though!

Best I can do is to continue making educational posts here. In case you don't already know, this is where I share my lifetime of bone processing experience. Priceless info, free of charge. So take advantage of it.

As for learning how to do what I do as far as my art goes, I'm completely self taught. Literally a lifetime of experimenting with different art mediums. You're just going to have to dive right in and get your hands dirty. Experiment. Find what mediums YOU enjoy. Do countless hours of research online for supplies and processes. Create, research, experiment, repeat... again and again and again. This is how I do everything I do, daily. Good luck! Jana

Apologies in advance! I get countless messages in many online locations daily about bone processing, bone ID, etc. Please try to find your...

PLEASE TAKE NOTE:

I wanted to point out that there will be photos here that may be offensive to some people. Namely, photos of dead animals. I want you to be aware that I never have nor ever will kill an animal for my bone collection. Thank you.

A little bit about me

I'm a photographer, artist, jeweler, bone collector and naturalist living in the deep-country on the Nature Coast of Florida. A cat and dog whisper, broken wing and heart mender, angel of mercy, and animal saint. Just trying to make myself a better person daily.
